Super Slow eSATA transfers...14MB A SECOND?!?

Building a HTPC and decided to transfer all my media from my main PC to my HTPC SATA drives through eSATA. Transfering 400GB of media according to Vista information is moving at 14MB a second and is going to take 10 hours...something doesn't seem right here!!!

The specs on my machine can be found in my sig...the drive I'm transferring from is a Seagate 1.5TB drive. The drive that is getting all the new data is the same kind, a Seagate 1.5TB drive. Its an internal drive hooked up through eSATA from my external I/O plate that came with my motherboard.

Anyone know what gives? I'm using the 2 port SATA controller...JRaid I think, and NOT the SATA ports that are intergrated into the P45 chipset. If anyone can help me I would appreciate it...I'm constantly moving information and will be doing so as I get more so I need this issue fixed.

Also, the JRaid controller according to Device Manager is being seen as a SCSI controller, same with the hard drive, SCSI according to DM.

Thanks.
 
Never mind...problem fixed...well, I'm just not using the JRaid controller anymore, I decided to just use the Intel controller...just makes for more ugly cable management since the Intel SATA ports are further to the right on the board, but in either case I'm flying at 60MB a second now...much better.

JRaid controller is either configured wrong (don't see how) or the drivers are T3H SUX0RZ.
